J&K Govt Announces Transfers in Food, Civil Supplies & Consumer Affairs Department
In a move aimed at boosting efficiency, the Jammu and Kashmir government announced a series of transfers and postings within the Department of Food, Civil Supplies & Consumer Affairs (FCS&CA) on February 14, 2024.
Several Junior Scale JKAS officers received new assignments across the state, bringing fresh faces and experiences to different districts.
The reshuffle saw Tariq Ahmad Sheikh take over as Assistant Director, FCS&CA, Srinagar (North), replacing Mohd Yousuf Ganai. Sheikh will also temporarily hold the reins of Assistant Director (Mills) for the area. Meanwhile, Bilal Ahmad Najar shifted from Bandipora to Ganderbal, while Naseer Ahmad Baba headed in the opposite direction.
Mohd Yousuf Ganai’s new post landed him in Budgam, while Shohab Latif stepped up to manage the additional responsibility of Assistant Director, Stores, Srinagar.
On the other hand, Mohd Sagir left his Jammu position for Kathua, with Rohit Kumar filling the vacancy. Kumar also received the additional charge of Assistant Director, Poonch.
Trading places were Nasir Ahmed Butt, who moved from Udhampur to Jammu to fill the (Trade & Store) position, and Mohd Sagir who took his former spot. Haroon Rashid Naik’s transfer saw him leave Kathua for City Circle-I, Jammu, where he will also manage Rural-I, Jammu.
Finally, Santosh Kumar joined as Assistant Director, Rural-II Jammu, replacing Rohit Kumar and carrying the additional responsibility of City Circle-II temporarily.
The government hopes these adjustments will strengthen the department’s operational capacity across various districts. They expect the reassignments to lead to improved service delivery and increased public convenience.
By bringing fresh perspectives and experiences to different areas, the reshuffle aims to revitalize the FCS&CA’s efforts in ensuring food security and consumer welfare throughout Jammu and Kashmir.
